Ticketing Settings
Send electronic tickets - Turn it on if you want to send a ticket with a QR code along with the payment confirmation. This is useful if guests need to be checked in at the venue.
Enforce ticket inventory - If you want to control the number of tickets in each option, then turn this on.
Allow for multiple type selection - When turned on, guests can pick more than one option. This is useful when guests need to pick a few options like tickets and meals or do transactions at a food stall.
Collect guest information per ticket -Use this to collect information like meal preferences, phone numbers, and addresses for each guest.
Ticket for In-Person Event -If this ticket campaign is to be connected to an in-person event, turn this on. This will automatically turn the 'Collect guest information per ticket' setting on and turn the 'Allow for multiple type selection' setting off. Turning this setting on does NOT connect the ticket campaign to the event. This must be done in Manage > Ticket & Guests.
Ticket for Virtual Event -If this ticket campaign is to be connected to a virtual event, turn this on. This will automatically turn the 'Send electronic tickets' setting off. Turning this setting on does NOT connect the ticket campaign to the event. This must be done in Manage > Ticket & Guests.

Ticketing Options
On the second tab, create an option for each type of ticket you would like to sell. You can sell individual tickets or tickets with multipliers (example: couples or tables), paid or free tickets.
1.
Set Min and Max Qty to be a reasonable number that your guests are likely to choose.
2.
Inventory keeps track of how many tickets of this option can be sold.
In the image above there are 150 single tickets available
In the image below, there are 10 tables. Each has 10 guests (the multiplier), so the total guests for this option are 10 * 10 = 100 guests.
3.
Value of goods would show in the tax receipt if the campaign is set to be tax-deductible in the General Settings.
4.
Turn on Group Ticket when you need to provide more than 1 spot when the ticket option is purchased. In the case of a couple, set the multiplier to 2. In the case of a table for 10 set the multiplier to 10. See below.
5.
Turn on Enable Guest Invitation when the ticket purchaser needs to invite other guests. They will see an interface that allows them to keep track of the RSVPs on their ticket and share as necessary.
